The business brunch, The Economy of the Bold: Solutions for a New Era, organized by Ukrainian media outlet Pershyi Biznesovyi | BIZ, took place in Kyiv. Representatives of Ukrainian companies discussed how the role of marketing is changing amid prolonged uncertainty, how businesses can measure the effectiveness of communications, and why trust is becoming one of a brand’s most valuable assets.

One of the event’s key panels, Marketing for the Bold: How to Build a Brand When Resources Are Limited, was moderated by Alina Smyshliak-Boroda, Chief Reputation Officer at Kormotech.

“I have built a team that does not know how to stop growing. Standing still is not an option for us.”

This is how Rostyslav Vovk, CEO and Co-owner of Kormotech, describes the principle that has guided the company for more than 20 years. In a new episode of the Vyshcha Liha podcast, Roman Bondar, Head of Korn Ferry’s Ukrainian office, explains why simply maintaining your position is no longer enough in today’s business environment.
